These signs can be associated with hypo- or de-myelinating leukodystrophies. A recent study reported two cases: one child diagnosed with leukodystrophy and cerebellar atrophy, harboring a homozygous variant in LSM7, and another who died in utero, presumed to have another homozygous variant in LSM7, based on the parents' genotype. LSM7 encodes a subunit of the LSM complex, involved in pre-RNA maturation and mRNA degradation. Consequently, it has been suggested as a strong candidate disease gene. This hypothesis was supported by functional investigations of the variants. Here, we report a patient with neurodevelopmental defects, leukodystrophy, and cerebellar atrophy, harboring compound heterozygous missense variants in the LSM7 gene. One of these variants is the same as the one carried by the first case reported previously. The other one is at the same position as the variant potentially carried by the second case reported previously. Based on comparable neuroimaging, clinical features, and the involvement of the same amino acids previously demonstrated as key for LSM complex function, we confirm that LSM7 disruption causes a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by leukodystrophy and cerebellar atrophy.</p>","PeriodicalId":34530,"journal":{"name":"HGG Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142476456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we report three SLC40A1 missense variants with opposite functional consequences. In cultured cells, the p.Arg40Gln and p.Ser47Phe substitutions partially reduced the ability of FPN1 to export iron and also partially reduced its sensitivity to hepcidin. The p.Ala350Val substitution had more profound effects, resulting in low FPN1 iron egress and weak FPN1/hepcidin interaction. Structural analyses helped to differentiate the first two substitutions, which are predicted to cause local instabilities, and the third, which is thought to prevent critical rigid-body movements that are essential to the iron transport cycle. The phenotypic traits observed in a total of 12 affected individuals are highly suggestive of ferroportin disease.

An example of this is myositis (or idiopathic inflammatory myopathies [IIM]s), a group of rare, heterogeneous autoimmune diseases affecting skeletal muscle and other organs, severely impairing life quality. Here, we applied a feature engineering method to borrow information from larger IMD GWASs to find new genetic associations with IIM and its subgroups. Combining this approach with two clustering methods, we found 17 IMDs genetically close to IIM, including some common comorbid conditions, such as systemic sclerosis and Sjögren's syndrome, as well as hypo- and hyperthyroidism. All IIM subtypes were genetically similar within this framework. Next, we colocalized IIM signals that overlapped IMD signals, and found seven potentially novel myositis associations mapped to immune-related genes, including BLK, IRF5/TNPO3, and ITK/HAVCR2, implicating a role for both B and T cells in IIM.
